Excerpt from The Classical Journal, Vol. 30: For September and December, 1824
We are' aware that many think, that for political or commer cial interests we may be allowed to shut our eyes at the arrogant vanity Of the Chinese, provided the embassy Obtains its proposed Object. We might, indeed, be induced to be of this opinion, if it were not an incontrovertible fact, that an embassy to China can never accomplish its Object. The Chinese, far from nego elating with the ambassadors of foreign powers, consider them as messengers come, on the behalf of their masters, to present his respects and the tribute due to his superior.
